Mediation-Arbitration; Understanding the Process
The mediation-arbitration process involves the parties, together with their counsel, selecting a senior East York Arbitration Lawyer to act as a Mediator. The goal is to aid parties and their counsel, to reach a final agreement and settle their issues.

What is Mediation?
Mediation is a voluntary process where the parties agree to an impartial third party to help them settle for their issues. They do not make a decision; instead, they assist both parties in reaching a solution. Their role is to ensure the parties have the opportunity to share their thoughts and concerns and provide a constructive and respectful space to discuss their issues. Parties are then able to identify and explore solutions to come to a voluntary settlement.
In family law, mediation can assist parties to resolve the division of property, child and spousal support, and custody and access of children.
However, should the parties not reach a mutually acceptable decision, they can proceed to arbitration or court to resolve their dispute. Then, the Mediator acts as an Arbitrator.
What is Arbitration?
At its core, arbitration is a form of dispute resolution. Arbitration is the legal process where parties present their case, provide evidence and deliver arguments before a third-party determines the resolution of the dispute. It is fast and more cost-effective than going to court while simultaneously providing certainty and finality.
When choosing arbitration, the parties opt for private dispute resolution procedures rather than going to court. The arbitration process is similar to a trial; however, it takes place in a private forum.
Once the arbitration has taken place, the Arbitrator will make a decision, which is usually final and binding.
